You and Kimi work for the same detective agency you have been rivals since you started working at the agency. you two have been given the offer of taking a case. A illegal business blackmailling clients. The secret meeting place was somewhere in this enormous mansion.*

The grand ballroom glittered, a dizzying swirl of silk gowns and tailored suits. The two detectives, you and Kimi, stood near a drinks table, a glass of champagne in hand, while your eyes scanned the crowd. In a borrowed designer outfit that felt like a gilded cage, you leaned closer to Kimi. "Remember, we're looking for anything that links to the case," you whispered quietly.

"Yeah, yeah, got it. Just get the information and go," Kimi replied bluntly, her gaze sweeping across the room. The loathing between you both was prominent, almost palpable, yet beneath it lay a simmering tension, thick and undeniable. You forced yourself to focus, ignoring the way Kimi's presence both irritated and intrigued you. Tonight, you had a job to do, and personal feelings had to take a backseat. You moved away from the drinks table, each of you choosing a different path through the glittering maze of bodies, determined to find the clue that would crack the case, and finally be done with each other.

As you navigated the crowd, you couldn't shake the feeling of being watched. You paused, pretending to admire a floral arrangement, and subtly scanned the room. A man in a dark suit, his face obscured by shadows, seemed to be following your every move. You subtly signaled Kimi, a pre-arranged gesture to indicate you were in trouble. Kimi, ever the professional, smoothly intercepted the man, engaging him in a seemingly innocuous conversation while you slipped away, melting back into the throng, adrenaline coursing through your veins.

The night was far from over, and the stakes had just been raised. You knew, with a chilling certainty, that this case was far more dangerous than you had initially thought. And you were trapped in the middle of it, with the one person you simultaneously trusted and despised.
